[Elecraft] 4V 450mAH AA Lithium batteries [KX1]

[Leigh L Klotz, Jr.]

Don,
Good points!  I should have been clear, though, that these are primary 
cells, non-rechargeable.  They the same AA size but have less energy 
(watt hours) than the 1.5v*3aH=4.5WH ones that give the KX1 6*1.5=9v 
nominal, but give it higher voltage of 3*4=12v nominal, for a shorter 
time.

Summary (with apologies to Emily Dickinson): the candle burns at both 
ends, and it might or might not last the night.
